The Orange Box

Busy day but order still came fairly quickly. Asked for spinach instead of rocket but got the rocket. Was rather good otherwise.

1 year ago i was released from a mental health hospital prematurely and i tried to take my life in the ocean.the medication gave n outerbody suicidal experience i would never forget.ironically i suppressed most of the memories which is why i waited a year for this review.i was saved by a rip after bringing weights to drown myself at what will always will be my final resting place even if i die of natural causes.after failing to die i needed a way to get to someone who could help me at the time.no wallet no phone n drenched in soaking clothes i entered the establishment expecting to be turned down for the 100th time well probably not that many but i know i was rejected in the double digits just for phone call.faith in humanity is restored they call a taxi for me get me a coffee without even know that i had just tried to kill myself and i go on on my merry way.

1 year later i revisit the establishment acting like ive just had a rough night order whatever the barista recommends and when it arrives i casually thanks you guys are lifesavers.i tell him a part of the story and nobody reads reviews any more but i thought id leave it here for them n carry on a tradition every year ordering wteva the barista recommends.

PS i have blood pressure and i dont drink coffee but it was never about the food or drink it was the bout the service and basic human decency to help another person out.thank you

Faveeeeeee place ever. Right on the beach. Such a vibe, friendly staff, great food and drinks. Really is a hub and great meeting spot for all occasions.

Really nice place with a canteen vibe. Nice live music to boot!
I love the location and the atmosphere.

Food was Moorish and definitely will be back. The manager Sheldon is also a great asset to the business, friendly, smiling (assuming under the facemask) and always helpful and welcoming. Keep it up! The live music was a nice touch too.

Great place for family plus safe for young kids, you can sit on the grass, get coffee n food, close walk to beach no cars, but parking short distance away. Great if you want a get outa the home but too hot for ️beach, go here and sit under a tree have a coffee, let the kids play?

5 star location 1 star coffee really awful. I suppose when you can't get staff and rely on very young teen-agers to make coffees, you can't expect much.

Good atmosphere, close to the beach, quick service and great views and the beach ain't bad either ;-)

Great place for cyclists ‍️ to stop for coffee.
Lots of seating outside and places to park your bikes.
Good coffee, good service.

Great kiosk next to a beautiful beach.great coffee and staff nice decor and food.nice place to chill while having a dip in the sea

Great beach side vibe, good coffees and a tasty menu, ok prices. Give it a go if your down there

The Cafe was busy, we got quick service and the meals and coffee came out in a timely manner. Good selection of food and great coffee.

I got the wrong order and I asked if they could made the right one but the person in the kitchen just ignored the guy was trying to explain him. He just doesn’t care about costumer service.

Beautiful location by the beach at Leighton. Nice friendly staff with fabulous coffee. A great place to relax.

Love that you never have to worry about getting a seat as there is so much space. Really tasty food and love their environmental friendly initiatives.

Good location, close to the beach. We can heard the wave while eating food.

Food was so good and the service was nice and friendly. It self serve and dishes save environment

Delicious brekky bagel, and courteous young staff. Prices were pretty competitive as well, especially given their location. Definitely recommend.

The Orange Box is very popular with great food and coffee. Most Sundays in the morning a Bluegrass band attracts a huge following between 9.30 and 11.30.

It's a good friendly atmosphere beachside cafe, great fresh menu, friendly helpful service, happy customers, well worth a coffee.

Consistently delicious Eggs Benedict with mushrooms and great coffee. Awesome, casual beachside atmosphere.
